Hello All
Fresh install of 12.04 on an Asus EeePC 1000 just now: installed ubuntu-restricted-extras, some youtube videos not playing, showing the 'plugin' warning. Other videos did play (smaller ones). Right clicking revealed that YouTube had switched to HTML5 'trial'. The only codec missing was HS.xxx.
I used the 'downgrade' instructions (with the addition of NoScript) and now flash is working on all videos. I had to restart before Firefox about
lugins command saw the plugin.
One hopes for an all HTML5 solution to this one...
Thanks for putting the instructions (and security warning) out.
Oddly enough, the PC with nvidia GT520 card and proprietary drivers is working fine...
